7:17, up, first thing
I do is come to the office, think of day’s planning and what I need done. More and more I’m living by the calendar. Part of me hates that while its opposing twin knows it’s necessary with a business...

Tired and not in
much mood to write. Not type, or scribble, just dive to this last Racer, and be done. My “toy truck” project, the novel, Mr. Massamen.. why do I have to have it such? A toy.. a dream.. “yeah I’ll...

In the adjunct cell, and
I write on the wines I tasted at client 2’s. Love each of them. And to be forcefully candid, I looked for flaws in the wines, and I couldn’t find a thing. Nothing. The closest I came was with the–...

Stories
9:57. No wine. Just meditation. Thinking. About everything. The whole notion of a career and one in the wine world or one with writing and one with teaching at some university, interpreting...

Top Floor, Please
Up not as early as I’d hoped but I’m up. My laptop clock or time reader or little ‘here’s where you are in the day’ corner tells me it’s 6:30. 6:30. Most people aren’t even up right now, least those...

The next morning I wake to Jackie
charging me as he always does and sending a draft, of one paragraph, to client 2, by email. Why am I using so many commas? Coffee– drinking it.. run today, easy night with students, just going to...

Enclosed in this new Cabernet translation, one from Napa which I don’t explore enough and I don’t know how more I need to go over there now, I can simply flurry and fly to a computer and order. But I...

7/24/15– notes
Meeting with client, then what. Writing, whole day to self. May do short run, but the writer needs time to meditate think in the context of the novel. 6:54AM, and not much in a mood for writing. So...

Morning, 7/26/15
The next day. Shamed in that I don’t write till the next day, the next morning, and not at the hour I want, which frustrates me to no end. And then I have it decided that I’ll leave work a bit early...

Pinot and the Penner
On my last Pinot glass, and feeling relieved and free, with this consolidating urge, all writings funneled and filtered into one effort or voice, or book– that’s what it is! I say to myself. I need...

MOCK SOMM: Cirq , Treehouse Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley, 2012
Waited to open this bottle, and I wish I would have waited longer. Just to see what else it would say and sing—or more so, wishing I had another 11 bottles. But this was a gift from Michael Browne...

El Work (coffee talking)
Cup 2, earlier this morning. Waking this morning to be in the Kick Ranch vineyard, to shoot and blog and write about the pick– but no one there. Glenn held up at another site and me driving around...
